Ashanna couldn't have expected for her opponent to attempt grappling maneuvers as they fought with the blades, but it was all part of the learning process, to be said. As Curo leaps in the air to attempt such a feat, he would have a melee artist's defenses and Force-enhanced agility to deal with. While the grapple was somewhat successful in unprecedently throwing her to the rock - "Nng!" - the knee would be met quicker with a bare foot that presses against the Togruta's chest. Had she a brawler mentality?
No matter how strong he was, he couldn't beat the sturdiness of the rock she rested against. That with her legs clearly the strongest part of her body, as long as Curo attempted to continue to lean forward and pin her, he would find himself subject to more and more leverage in the face of Ashanna rolling off her spine to send her opponent's weight ejecting right on over her in a counter-defensive grapple maneuver she'd clearly had to use in the past.
While her strengths and weaknesses were sometimes muddled, it was clear that the girl's strengths in defenses much made up for the lack of pure offense - in a lot of ways, she was the epitome of what a traditional Jedi sought to be. That combined with her skill without a lightsaber being present coupled with her ability to augment her physical abilities with the Force rendered her able to keep up with a warrior as skilled as Curo.
Even if she couldn't all-out defeat him as she could plenty others.
Were the vault to work, her Jedi assailant would likely be sent overhead and off the surface of the rock itself.
